About the Potomac Trail

Potomac Trail Council Board

The Potomac Trail Council (PTC) is an alliance of community organizations and local agencies committed to the development, protection, interpretation and celebration of the Potomac Heritage National Scenic Trail (PHNST). Our goal is to secure land and water routes in the PHNST corridor for public use while protecting natural settings and historic landscapes. In addition, we support the efforts of local organizations working to establish a continuous 425-mile network of trails between the Chesapeake Bay and Allegheny Highlands in Western Pennsylvania. As similar efforts have demonstrated, this goal is clearly attainable through cooperation and information sharing among interested individuals, local agencies and citizen organizations.

Specifically, we function as a consolidated voice in support of the PHNST throughout the entire Trail corridor. PTC is governed by an all-volunteer, 11-member board elected at meetings open to the public. Interested individuals are encouraged to join our trails, advocacy, outreach and fundraising committees.

If you would like to attend a board meeting or become involved in our committee work, please contact us for more information.
